Premium Safawi Dates — Dark and Rich from Madinah
Safawi dates are dark brown to black dates from Saudi Arabia, especially popular in Madinah. Often compared with Ajwa because both are dark and from Madinah, Safawi is generally longer, slightly softer and more affordable. That is why Safawi is a smart choice for anyone wanting quality Madinah dates for everyday eating. Toko Kurma Nusantara stocks premium Safawi dates in Grade AA and A No.1 — a segment often underserved by other stores.
Safawi vs Ajwa — Choosing the Right One
| Aspect | Safawi | Ajwa |
|---|---|---|
| Shape | Longer | Small and dense |
| Texture | Soft, slightly fibrous | Soft, slightly dry |
| Taste | Rich sweetness | Gentle sweetness, hint of spice |
